Bosch has reinforced the labour-saving advantages of tool connectivity with the launch of its GLI 18 V-1900 C Professional Floodlight. Thanks to Bosch connectivity, the strong performance and user-friendly features of the cordless LED worklight can be utilised and adjusted easily and remotely. The floodlight offers excellent illumination, with a brightness of 1,900 lumens and a dimmed mode of 1,000. Using an 18V 5.0Ah battery, runtime is eight hours in dimmed mode and four hours at full power.

A versatile joint allows angle adjustment up to 120°, with a choice of five different positions, and a thread is provided for attachment to a standard 16mm tripod. The robust frame, which also acts as a convenient carrying handle, is designed to withstand harsh conditions. Suited to both indoor and outdoor applications, the lighting unit’s cover offers IP 54 resistance to water and dust. Priced at £109.33, see www.bosch-professional.com for more info.

Continuing on a light note, look out for the quiz that Bosch Professional has just launched on Facebook. It extends the tongue-in-cheek connectivity campaign message, asking participants to find out if they’re a Neandertool, a Millennitool or something in between – with the chance of winning a Bosch professional connected combi drill. See the Bosch Professional Power Tools and Accessories Facebook page and select the ‘connectivity quiz’ at the bottom of the left-hand menu.

Between 1 July and 31 December 2017, you can claim a free gift via the Bosch Toolbox app when you buy one of a selected range of Bosch combi drills, drill drivers or angle grinders. For connected products, with the connectivity module already fitted, you can claim a versatile, stylish, ultra-modern Withings ‘Activité Steel’ activity tracker watch, worth over £135. For connection ready products, you can claim the GCY 30-4 Professional Connectivity Module for free.
